Current Suggestions….. April 20, 2009

Filed under: Nyte Byte, chic, food/drink, mobile phones, random, suggestions — uonlibnews @ 3:27 am

The Information Commons are designed for group work .  Expect people to be talking.  It does not excuse loud conversations on mobile phones.  But if you need a quiet space you will need to move to another floor.

Other random suggestions:

24 hr Macdonalds

Hammocks

Change machine- not going to happen

Less noisy vending machines

Ban mobile phones – if only!
